Trish Fernandez Poet Rhyme

How Sweet It Is

How sweet it is

Please Take 5 minutes of your time to read my poem
This sweet adventure actually won't take that long

Step inside my imagination 
Mr.Good Bar gave us a 100 Grand
50 thousand for you and 50 thousand for me
Lets go spend this cash with obligation 

We can go anywhere on this planet 
or travel back in time to buy a Whatchamacallit

But here in present time I've invested in a corner market
Selling warm Boston Baked Beans, homemade Hot Tamales and fresh Swedish Fish
The community is burning a hole in their pocket

I'm buying an expensive fur coat
Then a catwalk down 5th Avenue
And act like life isn't a Rocky Road

You know what forget the money 
I'd rather float in the Galaxy
and watch a Starburst
in Zero gravity
